DON'T BUY
Not a tech analysis stock. It's a person who's smarter than most, but can't get out of his own way. He's the wild card. He's dug his own hole. In need of someone else to run the company. Swings like crazy. News driven constantly. Not a hold. You have to jump in and out.
SHORT
He does not normally short stocks -- but this is one he would short. It trades at a ridiculous multiple. Musk is crazy. There is growing competition in the space. It will take a lot longer for electric vehicles to become mainstream. They are too dependent on the slowing Chinese economy. Their bonds trade only 85 cents on the dollar. Long term this company may not survive. He would not go near it.
DON'T BUY
If you hold this, put a stop loss on this name. It has fallen below its 200 day average. It is a great product but there is a lot of competition. He doesn't know if the company can be profitable. The next support level is around $150.
DON'T BUY
It broke below $240 which is bad, and the next level is $193. It needs to break above $240. Tesla has gone in the opposite direction from the overall market in 2019 so far.
DON'T BUY
China a threat? This is way outside his space that he invests in. Their cash burn is very high. A very volatile stock with questions on debt and cash flow. The thought is visionary, but it is not "investable" from his perspective.
WEAK BUY
We became accustomed to the discussion is around the survival of Elon Musk as a CEO. He believes this is a company that is going to survive in the future. He drives a Tesla. He owns it in the aggressive portfolio. A very small position.
WEAK BUY
This is a really exciting company. They announce the model 'Y' tonight which is their SUV crossover. It will be a rollercoaster. Their strategy is to 'lean' into the risk to get explosive returns. He loves what they are doing, but he has concerns about their corporate governance. He is willing to bet the farm.
BUY
When you go to work, why park your car when it could be going around doing drive hailing, or making deliveries (self-driving). You could make enough money from this to make the monthly payments. They are getting rid of all his stores and you will have to buy the cars on-line.
COMMENT
Elon Musk's latest Twitter rant and SEC troubles Tesla makes great cars, but it's hard to get excited about this stock when its CEO crosses the SEC. At the same time, Musk is a visionary and maverick.
DON'T BUY
Never owned it. Worries about the owner. This moves up and down, so you can trade it, but it's been flat since 2017 and is now below its 200-day MA. There's also lots of competition which could be a big headwind. Also cash-flow negative with weak earnings. Troubles ahead.
SELL
It has done a lot better than he ever expected. He has it in some client accounts. It has gone up about 11 times since it IPO'ed and is worth more than Ford and GM but only produced 10 million cars. He is going to sell off.
DON'T BUY
Very volatile. Never did. There's lots of competition ahead from the other carmakers. Tesla is more of a trade than investment. Its 35% growth rate is murky because of that competition. Is this a car company or solar? Maybe trade it and take profits. Now, it's overbought.
DON'T BUY
He has been long and short trading this one based on the volatility. In the last 4-6 months it has had enormous volatility. It would not be a core holding for them. He prefers owning the supply side of this space – into robotics and chips instead. He would trade this instead – buying at $275 and selling at $350.
COMMENT

Can they do what they promise? If they can, then this is a really important business. They're selling the best driving experience, not e-cars that only so many want to buy. The answer to this question remains to be seen. Also, he's uncomfortable with Elon Musk's tweets. Musk is a visionary and hard-working, but as in investor he needs to see profitability which isn't there yet.

COMMENT

They make beautiful cars, but Musk has been inconsistent and are burning a lot of cash. Musk needs somebody who can actually run a car business. Musk is a visionary, but he needs to run a business, like Steve Jobs at Apple needed somebody. He will likely do an equity issue and dilute the stock. If Tesla keeps missing numbers, competitors will slowly catch up.
